Hello! Mike Boiko, On your CVIA Posting #1315, it is my impression that you indicated that you felt that FCP Ltd " First Calgary Petroleums, Ltd. , might have some association with the merger discussions/activities! I have no idea whether FCP Ltd. does or does not have any association or affiliation with the CVIA merger process! However here is some information that I have tracked down on the internet, that may be of some interest ! The President and CEO is Mr. Richard G. Anderson! Another contact person is a Mr. John Kalmar ! More information can be found at www.sedar.com ( for those that are interested!) I tracked down the latest reported " Net Cash Position!" for FCP Ltd. and the the numbers were quite intriguing! The period ending September 30th. 1996, was reported as $1,586,000. The latest reported period being September 30th., 1997, showed a dramatic increase in "Net Cash Position" reporting $4,656,000. I'm not an "accountant" nor do I have any idea whether FCP Ltd. is in any way affiliated with the CVIA merger process! ( But! At a glance the healthy appearing "Net Cash Position!" is at least interesting at first glance! Although I do not have any idea how this scenario would or could affect the CVIA status if it were in some way associated!). Unless I misread or misunderstood the information it appears that FCP Ltd. has been around since some point in the 1940's, and currently is a listed stock trading on the Toronto Listed Stock Exchange! There is significant information available on the internet, as well as an S.I. Thread on FCP Ltd., so if any of you feel it has some significance relating to the CVIA Merger process, and feel you can provide Jack Arnold with some insight/recommendations regarding such a senario, I'm sure he would be more than interested in hearing your thoughts and viewpoint! In closing! Let me once again go on record , that I in no way know of any affiliation between CVIA and FCP Ltd., and have only shared the information on this posting, as I felt it might be of interest to other CVIA Thread participants that have previously expressed an interest in FCP Ltd.!
